What the rules say for Maldon
The rules that apply to fire doors in Maldon are England's. The responsible person under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 must keep fire doors in non-domestic premises and the common parts of flats in working order; the Fire Safety Act 2021 confirmed that this includes flat entrance doors onto common parts.
Where a Maldon block is above 11 metres, regulation 10 of the 2022 regulations means communal doors are checked every three months and flat entrance doors annually on a best-endeavours basis. Replacement doors must also satisfy the Building Regulations, with Approved Document B as the guidance most building control bodies work from.

Common questions
Do you cover CM9 and nearby postcodes?
Yes. We cover Maldon including CM9, and nearby towns such as Witham and Chelmsford. The survey and written quote are free.
Can you work from an existing inspection report for my Maldon building?
Yes. Send it over and we can often price straight from it, then confirm on site. We report back against the same door references so you can close actions off.
Can fire doors have access control?
Yes, if the electric locks, readers and cabling are covered by the door's certification and the locking releases safely for escape. We coordinate with your security contractor.
Can veneered fire doors match our interior?
Many certified doorsets come in a wide range of veneers and laminates, so matching an interior scheme is usually possible.
